Yep, that is exactly what I did. I assumed the default would be the correct one. I noticed that there is /etc/consode-tools/default.kmap.gz. Is this used for the default keymap ? Would the correct fix be to copy /usr/share/keymaps/mac/mac-us-std.kmap.gz to /etc/default.kmap.gz ? I'm a bit puzzled as to why it worked for some of the installation and then dies later. Thanks, Brendan Simon.
